3/8/20 72/100 1967 Volkswagen Transporter Panel Van

Now for the sequel to the Transporter wagon, the panel van that is new for 2000 and sports a light blue with motocross side graphics.  The casting carries over the same details from the transporter such as the front-end lights and large VW logo, the side panel doors, the detailed base, and the rear dual panels for hatch and engine cover.  The difference is inside where there is only a front bench seat as the rear is completely empty for cargo carrying duty; however, unlike other panel vans the best access for large items is on the right-side as the rear hatch is not large enough thanks to the lower air-cooled motor.  Also there is no working suspension that would eventually reach down to the wagon version in later releases.  Also the panel van has more use and is not as popular as the wagon hence this version was easier to find than the transporter in pizza delivery deco.
